The Best You Could
I couldn't understand you then
How what you said and what you did
Could ever be defended
And why you were never around
Why bitterness was your best friend
I think I understand you now
Somehow
You took your wounds and raised a wall
If no one saw your suffering
How could you ever fall
Grief had made a ghost of you
Could you even love the way
That you wanted to
If love was a language never taught to you
Then life was a teacher cold and cruel
I wanna tell you what I wouldn't
Walking out the door
I know you did the best you could
I know you did the best you could
If I'm ever on your mind
Know I hope you found the peace
That's been so hard for you to find
I think there's goodness yet to grow
May you come and find the mercy
You were always meant to know
If love was a language never taught to you
Then life was a teacher cold and cruel
I'm gonna tell you what I should have
Walking out that door
I know you did the best you could
I know you did the best you could
I know you did the best you could
I know you did the best you could
How what you said and what you did
Could ever be defended
And why you were never around
Why bitterness was your best friend
I think I understand you now
Somehow
You took your wounds and raised a wall
If no one saw your suffering
How could you ever fall
Grief had made a ghost of you
Could you even love the way
That you wanted to
If love was a language never taught to you
Then life was a teacher cold and cruel
I wanna tell you what I wouldn't
Walking out the door
I know you did the best you could
I know you did the best you could
If I'm ever on your mind
Know I hope you found the peace
That's been so hard for you to find
I think there's goodness yet to grow
May you come and find the mercy
You were always meant to know
If love was a language never taught to you
Then life was a teacher cold and cruel
I'm gonna tell you what I should have
Walking out that door
I know you did the best you could
I know you did the best you could
I know you did the best you could
I know you did the best you could
